This presentation was a joint effort between myself (Aiden Boyer) and Nicholas Nusgart, the other graduate student working on the EDM3 project. This talk was 30 minutes in length followed by 10 minutes of questions and was given as part of the Research Discussion series at FRIB, which I discussed in the previous post about the lab’s Research Discussions. The context for this talk was to get some additional presentation practice, and to iterate upon on available slide deck with new slides pertaining to the design of our upcoming upgrades to the FRIB-EDM3 instrument which we weren’t able to highlight at our previous presentations at the Fall 2024 DNP Meeting. I handled the first half of the presentation which focused on the apparatus and the upgrade of our electrospray, while Nick handled the latter half which focuses on the quadrupole mass filtering requirements and ro-hyperfine molecular structure.
